Fairseat is an impressive attached Victorian property of excellent proportions surrounded by beautiful established gardens of approximately 1 acre and within 2.5 miles of Sevenoaks station.

Originally built in the mid 1800s, Fairseat extends to over 4,500 sq ft and has been lovingly maintained over the years and enjoys an abundance of period features. The house was divided in the 1950s and has been owned by two families since then, with the current owners residing here since the mid-1970s. The property provides an excellent opportunity to update as required.

The front door opens into a generous entrance hall which provides access to the principal reception rooms. The exceptional drawing room, which was once the billiards room of the original house, provides a fabulous area for more formal entertaining and benefits from original features such as oak-panelling, parquet flooring, and an open fireplace. The dining room is of generous proportions and has a fireplace with gas connected along with an arched doorway providing access to the rear terrace. The sitting room has an open fireplace and an attractive outlook to the front.

The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of cupboards and an attractive dresser. It is equipped with a gas-fired Aga and provides ample space for additional appliances. The breakfast area overlooks the terrace and leads to a delightful conservatory, allowing for an abundance of natural light. A glazed side porch connects to the coal store.

Completing the ground floor accommodation, you will find a shower room along with a large utility room with access to the terrace. The cellar consists of two stores with wine bins, perfect for wine enthusiasts.

The first floor of Fairseat features five double bedrooms all of which enjoy a quiet and peaceful outlook. Most bedrooms include attractive fireplaces and fitted storage cupboards, adding to the period charm of the property. The bedrooms are served by two well-appointed family bathrooms along with a separate shower room and w.c.

Externally the property is approached via a shared driveway which leads to a lawned turning circle, providing parking for both Fairseat and Hernewood. The front entrance is bordered by an attractive display of plants, including a mature camellia underplanted with spring bulbs.

To the side, a gated entrance leads to an attractive courtyard and the former coach house, which offers garaging and storage space. There is potential to convert this building into ancillary accommodation, subject to the necessary building regulations.

The rear gardens of Fairseat are truly enchanting. A generous flagstone terrace creates an ideal space for al fresco entertaining, overlooking the stunning gardens. A level lawn extends to a bank of deciduous azaleas, complemented by hedging and a pathway with rhododendron beds. The pathway leads to a series of interconnected ponds with waterfalls, creating a peaceful and picturesque setting. Further along the garden, a charming Victorian rock garden awaits, featuring a small stone summerhouse for relaxation. The paths meander throughout the gardens, and to one side, a lawn area is bordered by a high brick wall and another bank of deciduous azaleas. The gardens are adorned with a variety of mature specimen plants that provide year-round interest.

In total, the plot of Fairseat amounts to approximately one acre, offering ample space for outdoor activities and peaceful contemplation. This property offers a truly unique proposition combining Victorian elegance with beautiful gardens all within close proximity to the popular town of Sevenoaks.
